Jonathan and Faith Goldberg

We know and believe that through the blood of Yeshua, The Lamb of God, we have received Salvation, Eternal Live, Love and Value. As followers of Yeshua we are His disciples and we have been commanded to obey Him and be fruitful in our conduct and in passing on to others what we have received - Love, Value, Eternal Life - all to be found in the Messiah Yeshua. We are to INFLUENCE, in our generation, in the place He has called us to, utilizing the gifts He has given us - we are to influence His love and salvation to ALL people. This love and value for His creation does not originate from us, but from Him through us - wherever we are, al all times.

Nate and Bethany will begin their work in Vienna, Austria by focusing on language and culture study. Once language study is formally complete, they hope to engage in ministry with the national church, focusing on church planting, discipleship and teaching. Because seeking God outside of the Catholic church is foreign to many Austrians, Nate and Bethany hope to create a church community that is engaging and relevant, allowing seekers to ask questions and dialogue about faith. The Johnsons also hope to connect with their local community through their shared interest in outdoor activities, including rock climbing, cycling, backpacking and hiking.

After gaining experience in Austria, Nate hopes to pursue a master’s degree in relevant field that will best prepare him for further efforts in ministry. The couple has an interest in church planting and one day hopes to join a team to plant a new church in country.

Pavlik Kratochvil

Pavel (Pavlik) Kratochvíl is the founder and Executive Manager of Elim-Letovice, a non-profit organization that serves the spiritual and social needs of youth in the towns of Letovice, Boskovice and Velke Opatovice in the Czech Republic. Pavlik and his wife Maci have three young children.

There were humble beginnings in 2012, with Pavlik and two volunteers borrowing space in a church building in Letovice. They created a youth program with sports, mentoring and Bible classes, and the 98 percent secular city of Letovice trusted them and welcomed what they were doing. Since then, Elim has become a leading voice for the Gospel to young Czechs and their families in the South Moravian Region of the country. Elim derives its name from the Books of Exodus 15:27; 16:1 and Numbers 33:9 – a place of refuge, a sanctuary or oasis. Safe and healthy programs and youth activities led by Elim volunteers have made their way beyond the walls of their two buildings and into schools and city programs.

Bijoy and Roxann Manaen

After six years in Nepal and nine years in India, the Manaens, under Bethany International Ministries, relocated back to the US in 2014.  State side under their nonprofit, Nepali Ministries International (NMI), they ministered among Nepali speakers and the churches.  Yearly they returned to India to minister, teach and encourage for a few weeks at a time.  Then later when they were no longer tied to their state side jobs, they went for a few months at a time.  

Now their aim is to remain in India for six to seven months at a time to teach on Revelation Biblical Prophecy as seen throughout scripture. For the last few years they have seen the rise of false prophets enter the church, having large followings. Also their heart is to equip, in partnership with other trained pastors, pastors and lay leaders who have had little to no biblical training, using the Bible Training Centre for Pastors (BTCP) curriculum. 

They continue to work alongside and support their church plants, national staff and Hamro Ghar children's home, as well as maintain and distribute their Vachan Prakashan publications.

These churches meet in homes, on mountaintops, under trees, and in river beds. We don’t focus on building structures, so it is sustainable, reproducible, and cost-effective.

You might say our family is a little competitive. As long as our son, Nick, can remember we've been sharing our meals, settling our differences and connecting with one another over a hand of Uno or a game of Ticket to Ride. But while we were earning bragging rights with a hard-fought Settlers of Catan victory, we never dreamed that God was preparing our family for a powerful ministry in a country far from home.

The Lord took our love for board games and gave us a unique way to build relationships with young people. Now when we play checkers, we're encouraging a young man to stay in school. When we play Jenga, we're teaching a youth leader to listen to a teenager in crisis. And when we play Yahtzee, we're helping a family come together after a tragedy. ​

Serving with World Gospel Mission in La Esperanza, Honduras, we're working with churches, Christian leaders and young people to change the way we think about relationship, creativity, problem-solving, teamwork, leadership and resource management―a biblical worldview that will transform hearts and communities for the Kingdom of God.
